They knew what the obstacles would be and helped me work around each one as they came up, regardless of whether the hurdle was administrative or physiological or anything else. Minimum stress.

I heard of other people using the program with great results so I called and talked to Jamie. Calling and making an appointment was probably the hardest part because it became real that I had a weight problem. After I started, I saw the results. My motivation came from wanting to get rid of the old person and to start living healthy. One on One Relationship- When I got started, having the 1 on 1 was important because my counselor told me I could call or email anytime with any questions. Having that person right there for all your questions was important because I knew I had help. Ease of program- I'm a pretty lazy person, but since the 5-1 was super easy, I didn't have to think. All I had to do was stay on program and the body started to do the rest. After I started to see results now I'm more active and started to do physical activities (by choice!).

After wanting a second non-Kaiser opinion on my thyroid and having issues setting up an appointment online, I called and scheduled a video consult. The pre-paperwork was a bit lengthy and during our appointment we went over my story. While I was able to confirm with her that my current medication was the best course of action, I didn't love that I later met with a Kaiser doctor who provided me with documentation that hypothyroid patients can have nasal nerves that go, for lack of a better word, haywire (falls under the term non-allergic rhinitis) and that lowering my dose as she suggested might actually cause the nerve to flare up. Overall I felt like One Medical had a better intake that was more thorough and helpful, and John Muir Allergy was overall more knowledgeable. At the end of the day, the out of pocket cost for the appointment was around $240, and I essentially got what I was looking for which was a discussion about my medication but I don't plan to move forward with Jiva Health.

Hello World, The…read moreintent of this review is to summarize my journey with LeanMD. I started my journey April 28th, 2019 weighing in at about 355 Lbs and as of January 1st, 2020 I was down to 280 and still counting down. Down -75Lbs in 8 months. Before entrusting this program, I was lost and scared that I was going to die quite literally.. I was literally killing myself with food due to down spiraling mindset. The worst part was knowing I am killing myself and still being powerless over my own decisions and actions. I was so sad, depressed, angry, resentful, and not in a good place. It is very rare to find genuine people whose sole purpose is to empower others with no expectation of us returning the favor. I was very reluctant to take the advice that was given due to many times trying and failing before. So I thought, "How is this going to be any different?" I was in denial about everything in my life, partly because I felt I had done everything in my power to lose weight on my own and to show any progress toward a healthier way of living. I realized I was powerless over my own decisions and I had no control over my destructive patterns of food choices and I came to realize how I was completely addicted to all the wrong things. Merli, Jonnesha, and Sarina have to be some of the most compassionate empathetic and kind people I have ever met. It never mattered if I had a good week or bad week or an okay week they were there by my side every step of the way. They helped me open my eyes to see my worth and to recognize just how valuable I am, as me. There came a point in my life where I contemplated a lot of things but I never knew life would have been one of them. I developed a sick mentality over time and I remember thinking at one point, "If I was going to die I was going to go out eating everything that made me feel good about myself in my life. If I've learned anything from this program, I've learned that micro steps equals macro wins. If I just take things minute by minute, hour by hour, day by day, week by week, month by month, year by year, or decade by decade, that I can achieve anything I set my mind to. I know it sounds cliche, but by having the accountability, empathy, and to truly feel the genuine passion of my LeanMD team of wanting to make me better, some times more than I wanted to make me better, it instilled a strong belief in myself to succeed. Jonnesha taught me that emotions are like the weather they change every day and that every new day is a new start. I have the ability to live my life by Design instead of letting it pass me by; if I just focus on taking small steps towards a sustainable lifestyle. For me, it was never about calories in or calories out, or eat this eat that. They gave me structure, confidence, and validation that I was right to feel how I was feeling in that moment. They validated everything that I needed in order to accept my situational circumstances of being so far away from where I want to be which allowed me to see the path to where I want to go. The first few months were brutal and I contemplated if I was going to do be able to do this at all, but with the help of Merli, Jonnesha, Sarina, and Dr. Sayles, I was able to overcome my emotional barriers that kept me from progressing. After I was able to get my mind back on track after a few months, I gained so much confidence in the program and in myself! I knew the LeanMD Team just wanted the best for me because they have shown such genuine empathy towards me as a person and my goals. I will forever be grateful to this LeanMD team for helping me get my life back and give me a second chance to live the life I always thought I would live. They have taught me that it's never too late to be what I could have been and they have helped me connect with my life-long dream of becoming a motivational speaker and to continue my goals of opening a nonprofit for other dreamers to fulfill their dreams and to reach ultimate peace. I am beyond blessed for the help LeanMD has provided me. When I say I tried everything, I truly feel that I tried everything. I was even contemplating gastric bypass surgery. I probably did every fad diet you can think of, every type of workout, read books, but at the end of the day sometimes we know exactly what we really need to do but there's a mental block the forces us to avoid all difficult things. This journey has allowed me to understand who I am and why I am the way I am, not to mention, where I truly developed these bad habits and why. The quote "Everyone dies, but very few live." has never been so clear to me. The ladies, (Merli, Jonnesha, Sarina) have helped me understand the strong foundation from which I come from. A strong foundation helped me develop such a bigger vision for where I want to go, which ultimately allows me to be 1000% focus in the present which is going to help me progress that much more in my personal and physical development.

I have tried every weight loss program out there (Weight Watchers, Jenny Craig, South Beach,…read moreAtkins, exercising,etc.). I found that those other programs worked very little in helping me lose weight and keeping it off. They just didn't help as much as I hoped they would. I felt like something was missing. Then I tried the program from the O'Connor Health Center and found that was the only one that was: -Easy to follow - Super Fast (I think it's faster than anything else in the weight loss industry) - Made me feel healthy/energetic - Eliminated hunger and cravings I lost almost 40 lbs and have kept it off since August 2015. That has never happened with any other program I have done. I really believe in this program. I would recommend this program to anyone who wants to lose weight and feel great!

Hearing this gave me some reassurance that the program works extremely well. I was still a little skeptical because the reviews and testimonials seemed like they were impossible results to achieve. However, the gentleman was sincere about his wive's results. I did the program and I lost about 40 lbs total. I have kept the weight off since the summer of 2016. It was an easy program to follow and after I lost the amount I wanted to lose I found it was very easy to keep the weight off. I would highly recommend the program. Every once in a while stop on to say hi. The staff is very professional and friendly.

The facility is also very clean. We've been back to Beem for their infrared social saunas and red light therapy. You can enjoy the social sauna with another person and you get about 40 minutes in the sauna and 15 minutes to shower. I like how it is very intimate and it's just you and your guest in one sauna room. They provide an iPad so you could play music and watch movies/tv shows while you're in there. If you decide to do an infrared sauna session and a red light therapy session, they provide you with either a wrap or a robe and a tote bag for your belongings, so it's easier for you to move from one room to another. It's definitely a cool experience and you do feel good after sweating out all the toxins from your body. I definitely recommend trying infrared sauna and red light therapy at least once and see how you like it.

All of the treatment rooms and the restrooms were very clean, aesthetic, and had great amenities.

The only improvement I personally noticed was slightly less fatigue in the mornings, which unfortunately did not justify the overall cost for me.
